Exegesis
The paired qualifiers haggədôlāh {הַגְּדֹלָ֖ה | ha-gə-dô-lāh} ‘the great’ and hazzôt {הַזֹּ֑את | ha-z-zôt} ‘this’ create distributive focus on the magnitude of the deliverance.
In context — Judges 15:18
He became very thirsty, and he cried out to the LORD and said, “You have placed this great deliverance in the hand of your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?”
